Some of Our Most Popular Courses:

Start a Blog that Matters (with Corbett Barr)

Start a Blog that Matters has been our best selling individual course of all time. Over 6,000 people have enrolled since we released it in early 2012.

And now, Start A Blog That Matters was recently
completely updated
for 2019 and beyond. After editing and putting together the final touches, we can confidently say there is no better blog training available.

Here's what the author of one of the biggest single-author blogs in the world had to say about Corbett Barr, Fizzle Co-Founder and instructor of Start a Blog that Matters:

“Corbett’s ability to get to the heart of successful blogging is a rare gift. I’ve seen him transform a blog from blah to wow, start an amazing blog from scratch, and help countless new bloggers with intelligent insight into what makes a great
blog tick.”

Leo Babauta, TIME Magazine Top 25 Blogger

This course includes 17 instructional videos and step by step action plans to guide you, plus 10 special recorded in-depth coaching sessions to cover all your questions.

Defining Your Audience (with Chase Reeves of Fizzle)

In this course Chase Reeves, Co-Founder and Creative Director of Fizzle shares exactly how to do the research and thinking necessary to understand your audience (or “target market”) so you can build a thriving business by serving them.

Many people gamble with their business by spending a ton of time thinking and scheming behind closed doors.

But you can give your business a much better chance of success by investing time up front getting to know the audience, understanding their problems, their language, and their values so the chances of creating a successful business for that
audience are much higher.

SEO for Bloggers (with Matt Giovanisci)

Matt Giovanisci has used SEO to drive millions of monthly visitors to sites across several niches from pool care to beer brewing to coffee. In Matt’s new “SEO for Bloggers” course, he breaks down everything he’s learned in 10+ years about SEO and
content into an easy-to-follow and proven SEO strategy and step-by-step process.

If you want to get more traffic to your site, this course is for you.

If purchased separately, this course costs $197. We somehow talked Matt into letting us give the course to Fizzle members at no additional charge. OK, actually we paid Matt for the privilege. Which means, we’re footing the bill for you to get this
fantastic SEO course that you’d normally have to shell out around two benjamins for.

But now, for a very limited time, you can get SEO for Bloggers inside Fizzle as part of your membership at no additional charge. We think this is pretty much amazing, and we think you will too.

Or you could get into this course for free and accelerate your learning, absorbing some massive insights from a pro and putting them straight to work for your blog.

You might have a passion for cooking, or maybe your life was changed by the simple act of investing in your weekly meals and now you want to share that with others, or maybe you simply want to learn… wherever you’re coming from you’re going to
walk away from this course with the essential foundations of running a successful food blog featuring Dana and John of Minimalist Baker

Is Our Work Changing Lives?

The greatest compliment we can hope for as entrepreneurs is to find out what we’ve built actually means something, that what we’re doing at Fizzle helps our members build thriving, matterful businesses.

A while back, a member wrote a post in the forums titled
“What I really think about Fizzle.”
When you see a title like that about your work, you can’t help but feel a little nervous to read the judgement that follows.

In this case, the post was from Tom Ross, one of the most ambitious and generous members in the Fizzle community, so we were even more anxious about reading what Tom had to say. His opinion is important.

This kind of feedback is what really matters. Traffic, followers, signups, and even revenue can all lie about your progress, but having an impact says something important.

If you can find a way to create this kind of transformation and experience for just one of your customers, you’ll know that what you built actually means something. Changing lives isn’t clichéd, it’s the source of everything good in business and
life.
Aim to change lives and yours will change too.

How can you tell if your work is changing lives? If your impact is important enough, you’ll hear about it. You can solicit feedback as well, but nothing feels better than a big compliment out of the blue, like we received from Tom.

We just had to share Tom’s feedback with you, because we’re so proud of what we’ve built at Fizzle and how much the community feels like family.

Here is Tom’s complete, unedited post:

“What I really think about Fizzle.” Forum Post by Member Tom Ross:

“I came to this community a few months back after a crushing business blow that was outside of my control. It was pretty much a case of pack this whole thing in and retreat with my tail between my legs, or keep fighting, and get some clarity and
direction in the process.

I came here thinking that it would be too basic for me, more aimed at beginners, and that I wouldn’t really learn anything new.

I was half right.

I already knew my way around WordPress.

I knew email list growth was important.

I knew a lot of things.

Two things I wasn’t so hot on?

Taking action
and
doing the right work

Fast forward just a few months and here’s where I’m at:

I’ve gone from 10 email sign ups per week to 160+ on my blog

I’ve abandoned a posting schedule that was stressing me to death and now publish great content once a week, stress free. I can now enjoy holidays away from the internet, whereas before I’d be constantly working, annoying those around me.

I’ve gone from not knowing my audience, to understanding them really well, and getting personal with a good number of them

I’ve gone from almost getting a traditional job to knowing through and through I’m in this entrepreneurial thing for life

I’ve gone from working with annoying, selfish clients to working with the most respectful, grateful clients I’ve ever encountered, who I now call friends

I’ve gone from feeling alone on this journey, to having a great community of contemporaries and friends all in this thing with me

My sense of design has evolved at a quicker pace then ever

I’ve learnt more about online business and marketing in 5 months than I did in 5 years.

I make daily progress, as opposed to stagnating and plateauing

I found motivation to pick myself up and start a new company, with a great team that looks set to do spectacular things

I discovered a joy for teaching that was always there, but never properly uncovered

I’ve been lucky enough to help a good number of people with their designs and businesses

I feel matured and changed as a person, with more clarity and direction in life

I’ve cut away the crap. All the meaningless work and pointless metrics. The wasted time, and wasteful people.

I talk about minor successes and general progress on these forums, but this place has been nothing short of life changing.”

Three Tips for Having More Impact and Finding Out How You’re Doing

Visualize and articulate the transformation you want your customers to go through.
How will you meaningfully impact their lives with your coaching, courses, services, software, podcast, etc.? Care about their success more than you care about your own.

Measure things that tell you how much of a difference you’re making.
Give up metrics like traffic, followers and social media shares, in favor of metrics that measure customer progress and satisfaction. Constantly ask yourself how things can be reengineered to deliver more value to your customers.

Ask your customers for feedback and take it to heart.
Give people easy ways to share what they think. Tell them you’re listening and that you care.
